We depart for Johannesburg.

We arrive in Johannesburg in the late afternoon and transfer to our hotel.

We start with a tour of the Johannesburg township of Soweto - the most populous black residential area in the country. Soweto sets the trends for South Africa in politics, fashion, music, and dance. We will visit Mandela House, Vilakazi Street, and enjoy lunch in a typical Shebeen. This evening we enjoy welcome cocktails and our Welcome Dinner.

We fly to Victoria Falls and transfer to our lovely lodge hotel. This afternoon we embark on a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River before returning to our lodge for dinner.

We enjoy a morning tour of the Falls - a sight to behold! The afternoon is free, and there will be an opportunity to take an optional helicopter flight over the falls. Dinner will be a special African experience.

This morning we proceed to our safari lodge near Chobe National Park - home to a splendid variety of wildlife, including hippo and elephants that stroll the river paths to drink. We take our first game cruise this afternoon.

On our morning game drive we enjoy the wonderful surroundings of wild Africa! In the afternoon we take a boat ride along the river and get up close with the bounty of Chobe as we view herds of kudu, waterbuck and possibly elephants coming to the river to drink.

We fly from Victoria Falls back to Johannesburg, and then proceed to our hotel en route to Kruger National Park.

We proceed to Kruger National Park for wildlife viewing at its best! The park offers an experience in beauty, tranquility and variety not found anywhere else in the world. En route we visit the majestic Blyde River Canyon to see God’s Window and Bourke’s Luck Potholes - true natural wonders! Our hotel is located just outside the Park.

A full day of game viewing in open safari vehicles. We start early in the morning, the best time to find the world's largest variety of wildlife including the Big Five (lion, elephant, rhino, leopard and buffalo), hippo, cheetah, giraffe, zebra and crocodile. The park is also home to more than 400 bird species.

A morning at leisure to enjoy the various activities at the hotel. Relax by the pool, do some game or bird watching or take a nature walk. Later we depart for our evening game drive to see if we can catch some nocturnal animals in the spotlight.

We return to Johannesburg for our flight to George, on South Africa's fabled Garden Route.

We travel over the mountains to Oudtshoorn to visit an ostrich farm, followed by a visit of the Cango Caves, whose stalagmites and stalactites will leave a lasting impression.

Today we visit a township near George, where we will have a chance to meet the children at a local primary school. Then we travel to Knysna and ferry over to the Featherbed Nature Reserve, dedicated to the protection of the local flora.

Our Garden Route drive takes us along the coast, around lakes, mountains, golden beaches and cliffs - an enchanting drive with a romantic history. We arrive in Cape Town and take a cable car ride up Table Mountain for panoramic views.

Our city tour shows us the Malay Quarter, the Botanical Gardens and more. In the afternoon we embark on a ferry ride and guided tour of the Robben Island Prison Museum (weather permitting) where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years.

A Winelands tour through lovely scenery of vineyards, oak shaded rivers and old Dutch colonial homes. We enjoy a tasting in a wine cellar and lunch at a private estate. In Stellenbosch we visit the Village Museum.

A full-day tour to Cape Point. After a boat ride to Seal Island we continue to Cape Point and the Cape of Good Hope, where we see colonies of penguins and seals in their natural environment. This evening is our Farewell Dinner.

After a morning at leisure, we transfer to the airport for our flight home, via Addis Ababa.

Arrival back in Canada.
